A star is born- Emma Raducanu makes history - never has a qualifier won a major- men or women- and she is just getting started. And will never have to qualify again:)
Leylah Fernandez will be back -both are champions but Emma has the trophy- well done!!!

Very proud to see that #ButterflyVolunteers have supported just under 3000 patients nearing the end of their life visiting them & spending time with families nearly 8000 times #ThursdayThoughts
Huge shout out & massive thanks to the teams @NHSHarlow @NNUH@JamesPagetNHS@ESNEFT
#Caregivers have a right to know what the illness roadmap looks like. This can help make transition points predictable instead of seen as periods of crisis. Information is not only grounding, it is the antecedent condition to ensure a proactive caregiver journey. #Medtwiter
Late August, given heavy rain and sun
For a full week, the blackberries would ripen.
At first, just one, a glossy purple clot . . .
Like thickened wine: summer’s blood was in it
Leaving stains upon the tongue and lust for Picking
My nephew passed his driving test yesterday just a few weeks after his dad passed away from brain cancer. It took his dad an over an hour to write this card a just few days before he died - it was a monumental effort for him!
Losing people on the ICU is always tragic, but this latest wave of losing young previously fit and well unvaccinated covid patients is a new level of sadness. It’s a heavy burden. Potentially preventable tragedy is brutal on the soul
Dear @educationgovuk,
Please could you advise whether there are any planned changes to the Actions for Schools guidance before term starts?
I need to communicate arrangements to staff and parents and it would be helpful to know.
Yours,
School leaders and staff everywhere
My Mum died last Sunday after over a year of being denied meaningful access to family and friends. I broke the rules to take off ppe and hold her on my arms as she died. We need to do better. We will all grow old. We have failed. @RishiSunak@Helen_Whately@BorisJohnson

12 years ago today my whole life changed. I became paralysed from the top of my shoulders and down.
My accident may look like it’s taken from me but it’s given so much. A confidence I never I had. A way of dealing with problems I struggled with before my accident. Happiness.
I am proud to identify with the England manager and every member of that team. They showed honour, decency, commitment, skill. And I could not say that of most England teams in my lifetime
